Can Dogs Eat Macarons?

The delicate (human) macaron is a light and airy meringue-based treat made with almond flour, egg whites, and sugar, all filled with a delicious ganache center. The macaron has been a delicacy in France since the 18th century, enjoyed by people and now by dogs alike. You may have slipped a piece or two of your human macaron to your furry best friend, but what if we said we've made a macaron just for dogs? The fact of the matter is that the macarons we humans enjoy are not meant for dogs, so we created our own. At Bonne et Filou, we've crafted macarons for dogs that are as good looking as they are delicious and made just for them! Our high quality macaron dog treats are meant to treat your dog like the royalty you already know they are. Not only will they indulge your dog's every taste bud, they are made from a short list of natural ingredients.

Can dogs eat human macarons?

It is best not to share yours. Human macarons are made for people: they are rich in sugar, they use almond flour, and many fillings contain chocolate, which is toxic to dogs. Some sugar-free sweets also contain xylitol, a sweetener that is very dangerous for dogs. If your dog gets hold of a human macaron, check the ingredient list, and call your veterinarian right away if it contains chocolate or xylitol. For a macaron your dog can enjoy, choose one made for dogs.

Are macarons good for dogs?

Bonne et Filou macarons are a different treat, made for dogs from 4 simple ingredients (oat flour, honey, coconut oil and a yogurt filling), with no artificial colors or preservatives.

Why create macarons for dogs?

Our inspiration to create the most delectable dog treats, to make your dog feel like they are sitting in the Palace of Versailles, comes from that very place! Since French King Louis XIV, Versailles has been a dog's paradise and playground. After a long day of hunting and playing, King Louis' faithful companions Bonne and Filou took their royal place in the palace, complete with their own personal chefs, and lavish wear. We believe that dogs all over the United States deserve to be treated this way, so we've created a macaron for dogs. If you have a dog that enjoys the finer things, or simply a dog that wants to, treat them to some Bonne et Filou.
